The Swedish Institute (Fully Funded) Scholarships for Global Professionals (SISGP) program is part of the Swedish government’s international scholarship scheme aimed at developing global leaders’ leadership experience who will contribute to the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. It is supported by the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Sweden and served by the Swedish Institute (SI). The program offers a unique opportunity for global professionals to develop professionally and academically, to endure Swedish society and culture, and to grow a long-lasting bond with Sweden and with each other.
The goal is to enable the scholarship holders to play an active role in the positive development of the societies in which they live. Ideal applicants are ambitious fresh professionals with academic qualifications, demonstrated work and leadership experience, ambition to make a difference by working with issues which provide to a just and sustainable development in their country in a long term perspective, and a clear idea of how a study program in Sweden would serve their country.
